heartbreak hotel was sooo great live...the 'so lonely's they added were a nice touch. And, I know it ain't on the new one, but how about that kickass version of 'truth in the dark' they're doing! hells yeah!

I'm really digging what he did with Sleeping With The Witch. It's a massive improvement over the first time I heard it live and the few variants that bounced around for a while. But it's a tough call. I think Say Goodnight To The World might just top it.

I don't think I could pick one, and I have favorite things about each one. Heartbreak Hotel is especially awesome live - it's still a melancholy dirge, but live there is an undertone of frustrated anger about the vocal delivery.I so much love Sleeping With the Witch - for the lyrics.Shit, I really do love them all.

part of me wishes the album was closed with Witch. i understand why he chose I'll See you In Hell... as the last song, but for some reason to me, Witch feels more like a closing song. let I'll See You be #9, witch #10.

a lot of the songs on this album reek of pink floyd to me. heavy the way heavy was originally intended. i love it"if this is hell" did the same thing to me, only in a different way. completely different monster

anyone else feel this way?

ha, your not the only one.. i was having this conversation with someone the other day about it.. witch does sound like an album closing tune.

I didn't care for I hear satan....i liked the version i heard when the song first came out.My fave is Like Moonlight...in a tie with Born to be my gallows...good shit

I love the whole record such a combination of Dax songs. You where born to be my gallows is such a spiritual experince. That song is what dax always quotes magic or magical. Say goodnight is alot more guitar oriented at times which I love and I hear satan is a amazing song about life events of the government. Alot of bands try to be political and fail like Green Day but to me record sales and radio play have nothing to do with phenomenal music. People these days dont know what great music is and focus on good beats with horrible lyrics. Sorry to rant.... I just think if people actually listen and really listen to dax and what his music is and represents then he would already have been on regular radio but people r stupid and blind. Im sorry for this rant again but music these days piss me off. What ever happened to real music that can make u feel something different and free u from everyday life instead of Justin Bieber boy band shit!!! God!!! Now that I have thought about it the whole entire collection of Dax Riggs stuff is 100% better than anything we have experienced this whole time since the year 2000!!! Acid bath is amazing and so is his stuff before but the 90s is the best music ever so I cant say he is the best in the 90s but definatly the year 2000 and on. Ive talked to him recently and he is so cool about connecting with his fans and talking to them and so on. Noone that I like as musicians I have met have ever been like this guy. He is something special! I believe now, Magic is real!!!

..for an idea of how great his particular example of magic can be, give a listen to Electric Comoland.

..that's just him fucking around with another brilliant mind. There are -many- examples available of such, but that's a decent starting point, I'd say..(*I'm sure the rest of you will give other, more certifiable examples..the Twitches come to mind*)

..but yeah..the greatest beauty, in my meager opinion, is the unintentional..and Dax is full o' that.
